    Video brightness from the keyboard is not likely to work, either.  The
    cpu power saving modes (on-batt/off-batt) should work.

	As for Bluetooth, it is still a no-go.  It has yet to be ported to
	DragonFly, either from FreeBSD or some other BSD variant.
	It is implemented as a Netgraph module in FreeBSD.  If our Netgraph
	code is updated with that in FreeBSD, it shouldn't be very hard to
	port it over.
